## Refactoring
- Account settings with `HTabbedContainer`
- Rewrite the message selection buggy mess
- Put keybindings in the components they belong to instead of shoving them
all in one central file
- Rewrite account settings using `HTabbedContainer`
- Get rid of all `currentSpacing` stuff
- Use new default/reset controls system
- Split `HScrollableTextArea`
- Composer
- Don't put all the keybinds in one central file
- Missing room keybinds (invite, etc) and close failed upload
- Use QML states?
- Display name field text should be colored
- Split `HScrollableTextArea` into `HTextArea` and `HScrollView` components
- Refactor `Composer`
- Make sure we don't store any state in delegates
- Drop the `buttonModel`/`buttonCallbacks` `HBox` approach, be more declarative
## Issues
- Forget a room, it comes back because of the "you left" event
- `EventImage`s for `m.image` sometimes appear broken, can be made normal
by switching to another room and coming back
- Popups and room settings can't be scrolled when not enough height to show all
- `Timer` and `Animation` are bound to framerate
- Handle cases where a known account's access token is invalid
- If an account is gone from the user's config, discard UI state last page
- First sent message in E2E room is sometimes undecryptable
(can be fixed by logging out and in again) (still valid?)
- Pausing uploads doesn't work well, servers end up dropping the connection
- After forgetting a room, it comes back because of the "you left" event
- In the "Leave me" room, "join > Hi > left" aren't combined
- When selecting text and scrolling up, selection stops working after a while
- Ensure all the text that should be copied is copied
- Multiple messages are currently copied out of order
- `code` and links in quote ("> http://example.com") aren't properly colored
in room "last message" subtitle
- `code` not colored in room subtitle
- Quote links color in room subtitles (e.g. "> http://foo.org" )
- If account not in config anymore, discard ui state last page on startup
- Do something when access token is invalid
- Don't store states in delegates
- [hr not working](https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-74342)
- Terrible performance using `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland-egl`, must use `xcb`
- Can't use `QQmlApplicationEngine`, problem with QApplication?
See https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-50992
- [HTML <hr> not rendered](https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-74342)
- Pausing uploads doesn't work well, servers ends up dropping the connection
(no real solution possible?)
